Classifieds configuration on WordPress multisite with BuddyPress

Help! I was almost ready and then the classifieds plug in started blowing up on me. We are running latest Wordpress MU with BuddyPress. I get the deprecated links error in admin until I disable the WPMU Updates plugin and the Site Wide Text plugin. All looks good until I go to site admin, the dashboard widgets are showing literally hundreds of deprecated link errors. I could even ignore this and tell the client too as well but when we try to create an ad none of the links in the ad work. http://bossdawgs.com/classifieds/. No categories, no ad etc. Please help

And this is through the admin. If I am a member and try to create a new ad I can't save it. I get the "fill out all fields..." error message but all fields have been filled out. Go ahead and create an account on the site if you need to to test.

I've got a local test site setup with it using the BuddyPress default theme and haven't experienced this issue myself, so I'd like to see where the differences lie between our two setups here.

Could you let me know what versions you're using of WordPress, BuddyPress and Classifieds to start with? Also, would it be possible for you to deactivate other plugins to see if there's a conflict there?

Lastly, your user registration appears to be disabled, so I couldn't create a test account, though I can see from your ad links that something's not working right.

Thanks for the extra information. I noticed there's no tags listed in the tags box and while I'm not sure that's where the trouble's coming from I figured that could be worth a try. Could you try adding a tag and selecting that for one of the items to see if that resolves this?

I'll also notify one of the developers to see if they might have any idea what's amiss here.

Hmm, just thought of one other thing that may be worth a try as well. Could you navigate to your Settings > Permalinks page, selecting one of the other permalink settings, pressing Save, then selecting your choice permalink setting and pressing Save again?

There's been a case or two where this resolved issues like this and I'm curious if that's all that's needed.

I will try the permalinks idea now. Also I don't know if this matters but in the site's admin dashboard, both dashboard widgets for "Incoming Links" and "Wordpress Blog" contain a bunch of this:

Thanks Ivan for helping. Unfortunately I already have that (see below). Something I was thinking about last night, I ran the PHP info script on the server and the config is posted here (maybe this will help identify the issues) http://bossdawgs.com/test.php

First, remove the phpinfo() from your server as this is sensitive information about your server so it shouldn't be live. I looked it and there is no error reporting level set in your php.ini. However there is certainly in-line error reporting set somewhere.

Thanks Ivan - yeah I just wanted you to see it, I'll get rid of it. This sounds like a host issue. I can't get to the PHP its handled by the host. I just have BP and WP-MU installed on a shared hosting account. I'm not sure if my host will disable that. If they do could that fix it? Thanks!

I am pretty sure this has something to do with the rewrite rules. If you want I can take a look at your setup to narrow down the cause of the problem. Please send a TMP admin access using our contact form with subject Fwd: Ivan.

My "custom tag" permalink structure puts the /blog in front of the classified. Mod rewrite then puts that in front of the post and it conflicts with the buddypress link structure. I don't know enough about wp to change this but I disabled it and that's working.

Sorry about the lack of response on this thread. We sometimes lose track of the older ones that have been resolved initially. Would you mind opening a new thread? We're more than happy to take a look with you on this.

Thanks!
